Yan Guogong and his wife were shocked by Gu Mingzhu's words, and the couple thought about all possibilities, and finally decided that this was the queen of heaven who had already made people stare at them, and even such a secret thing was already very clear, and they must have mastered their handle, otherwise how could the Lingling County Lord have the ability to arrange people to find out so clearly.

What's more, although the Yanguo Mansion is no longer as prosperous as when the founding heroes were in power, it is still the oldest and most respected among the nobles, if it is not for the instructions of the Queen of Heaven, who would dare to secretly check them.

In the bedroom, Yan Guogong's face was gloomy and ugly, and he walked around uneasily and thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind: "You go to the county lord's mansion tomorrow, no matter what reason you use, you have to find a way to set up the county lord's tone, and see what the queen of heaven is planning?" ”

"Although the Yanguo Mansion has not listened to Niangniang's orders over the years, it has never hindered her affairs, and now it has come to this point...... You might as well go into the palace and walk around to see what the mother has to say. ”

When he said this, he sighed heavily, the Yanguo Mansion has always been the most calm among the nobles, and the battle between the emperor and the queen has never been made, not like the hussar general's mansion Gu family, but he wants to see it clearly before starting, in order to get the greatest benefits, but now I am afraid that I can't wait any longer, I am afraid that if they hesitate again, the queen of heaven will be ruthless except for the Yanguo Mansion.

Duchess Yan Guo collapsed her face: "I still want to see that girl who doesn't know the height of the sky!" I was so pressed by her today that I couldn't lift my head, but I had to go to the door again to see her face! ”

Yan Guogong was so angry that he was about to scold: "The life of this family matters, or your worthless face matters, even if Lingling County wants you to kneel and serve tea, you have to do it, don't forget, she is holding something terrible in her hand!" ”

Selling illicit salt is a big crime, and the smuggling of copper and iron ore is punished as a rebellion, the Yanguo Mansion was greedy for huge profits, so it took a big risk to do these things, originally looked at acting through the ship, and arranged for cronies to dot it, always thought that it could be foolproof, but I didn't expect to be found so clearly!

Yan Guogong and his wife were panicked and anxious, but Gu Mingzhu, the initiator, was resting in the room freely.

Gu Mingzhu, who was crooked on the couch and covered a corner of the blanket, spread her hair, flipped through the scroll in her hand, yawned a little, covered the book and asked Ah Bi, who was cleaning up: "Where is Mama Han?" Why didn't you see her come in. ”

In the past, when Gu Mingzhu wanted to go back to the palace, Mama Han would come over to talk to her and tell her a few words to rest assured, but today she didn't come in.

Abi smiled: "Mama is still steaming rice cakes in the kitchen, saying that she will bring them into the palace for the county lord tomorrow to ask for a good omen." ”

Gu Mingzhu also smiled, and then said to Abi: "You tell Mama that if the Duchess of Yanguo comes to the mansion to ask to see her in the past few days, you might as well drag her and let her be anxious." ”

Abi was stunned for a moment, nodded and went down.

Gu Mingzhu turned over with a smile, lazily nestled in the warm futon, and closed her eyes.

The Yanguo Mansion can only be regarded as unfortunate.

At first, Gu Mingzhu didn't plan to move first, but Gu Mingli's marriage happened to have such a thing, and if she wanted to deal with the Yanguo Mansion, and if she wanted the Duchess of Yanguo to agree to change the dowry, she had to come up with a handle.

Yanguo Mansion is the founding of the country, after several generations although not as high and powerful as before, but it is good at management, the ship line in hand from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang to the Grand Canal There are many ships, and it is tall and strong, not a few points worse than the official ship, and the saints were praised at the beginning.

Gu Mingzhu also learned that the Yanguo Mansion was doing business privately in the palace newspaper from the secret agent report of the virtuous king Li Yu, and Li Yu was ecstatic when he heard the news, so he used this to blackmail the Yanguo Mansion to hand over most of the ships, and even used these ships to send the grain from Huguang and the silk porcelain from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Luoyang, showing his face in front of the sage, paving the way for the prince's position in the future.

Now Gu Mingzhu naturally wouldn't just watch this good thing go aside, since she had made up her mind to do it, she wouldn't leave these to Li Yu.

This is a big bargaining chip for her in the future, of course, she has to keep it in her hands.

It's just that the treacherous and cunning Duke Yan Guo and the scathing Duchess Yan Guo are willing to give up the boat, just relying on these few words is not enough, she has to make them anxious, only if they are in a hurry, they will be chaotic, and they will be willing to give the boat by themselves.

She let out a soft breath and fell asleep on her side with a smile, after all, she wasn't the one who shouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Early in the morning of the second day, the Duchess of Yanguo cleaned up and dressed up, and came to the Lingling County Lord's Mansion with her maidservant, she was not in a hurry, the night before the two of them tossed and turned to the side, and no one could close their eyes, lest as soon as the morning dawned, the prison guards had already surrounded the Yanguo Mansion and took them all down on the charge of rebellion.

Therefore, the Duchess of Yanguo couldn't care about her dissatisfaction with Gu Mingzhu's idea, and worriedly brought someone to visit.

It was only when he went to the county lord's mansion to deliver the post, and he was returned by the porter, but he said that the county lord had already entered the palace early in the morning.

Duchess Yan Guo was completely dumbfounded, she didn't expect Gu Mingzhu to enter the palace so early, it was difficult for her to go back like this, but how to rest assured in her heart, she had to ask a few questions.

"Does the county lord have anything to say? My wife came to greet the county lord on purpose, I wonder when the county lord will come back to the house? The little maid of the Yanguo Mansion talked to the mother-in-law who was guarding the door flatteringly.

The mother-in-law was unmoved, and replied with a straight look: "The county lord has never given any orders, but just said that there are still many things to be taken care of in the palace, and the queen of heaven ordered her to go back to the palace as soon as possible, and I don't know when she will be able to return to the house." ”

Duchess Yan Guo heard the words of the queen of heaven, her eyelids couldn't help jumping, the lord of Lingling only said those words to her yesterday, and today she went back to the palace without paying attention to anything, or the queen of heaven ordered her to enter the palace, it seems that this matter is really the meaning of the queen of heaven, how can it be good now!

The Lord of Lingling County has never seen it, and he doesn't know what the Queen of Heaven means!

She was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but she didn't have the courage to enter the palace, let alone ask the queen of heaven, so she could only take the maidservant back to the Yanguo Mansion in a carriage.

Only then did he go back to the house and tell Yan Guogong the news of Gu Mingzhu's entry into the palace, but he was so angry that he reprimanded him fiercely: "How can you be so confused!" This is obviously the county lord's intention to avoid you, and the queen of heaven is now afraid that she will wait to see what we will do, why did you come back like this! ”

He looked at the Duchess of Yanguo who looked confused: "It's better to send someone to the county lord's mansion every day to deliver the post, as long as the county lord returns to the house, you immediately go over to ask for a meeting, be sure to understand the meaning of the one in the palace!" ”
